What the Bible can tell you
By David. The LORD is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalms 27:1
Don't you be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.
Isaiah 41:10
The LORD is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Psalms 118:6
A human reading
Avoiding what you fear brings relief in the moment, but it strengthens the fear. Starting with small situations and with professional support can give you back the freedom to connect.
